A comprehensive Operating and Service Manual. All schematics are complete and easy to read. The PCB drawings and complete parts list are very helpful. I would definitely recommend this manual.
Genuine Toshiba owner's manual. Couldn't really ask for more. And written in understandable English in contrast to a few recent experiences I have had with manuals for other equipment other than Toshiba but made in China and written in "Chinglish"!

6 Place AIBO on the floor as shown on the right.
Place AIBO on a flat, non-slippery surface, such as a carpet with a short nap.
Notes
� On a slippery floor or a carpet with a long nap, AIBO may fall down or carpet may be caught between its joints, so it may not move forward. � Be sure to place AIBO on the floor as shown above. This will prevent AIBO from moving unexpectedly and being damaged when you press the pause button.
7 Press the pause button on AIBO�s chest.
The chest light lights up green. After a while, AIBO will begin moving automatically.
